Dearest Feastlings,
Whether your holiday table has a turkey on it, a standing rib roast, a ham or a spaghetti squash, there’s one varietal that gets a gold star in the “plays well with others” category: Grenache. This week, Kevin pulls out four of them, ranging from the perfect Tuesday night wine all the way to Chateauneuf du Pape from one of the most prestigious producers in the appellation. Still, the price is a mere $10 plus tax and gratuity. You’ll need to call and make a reservation, as web and email reservations won’t hold you a place, but we hope you can join us this Saturday, December 13, at 2 pm.
